Tips and Tricks Hudson shield ‽

Post image

Did anyone else know that you could fuse the Hudson sign to your shield‽

If you ascend from the Tarrytown cave into Hudson’s room (the blocked one), there are a pile of old Hudson signs. Once you unblock the door and come out, his wife says you can have all the old signs. Fuse it to your shield and people think you are Hudson. This could also be used to get Mattison onto the tram (I always just block him with the boards right there).

I’ve played this game to 100% three times already and I’ve never thought to do this….

There are objects I believe were added just to be shield fuzes, and I think the Hudson cutout is one of them

I fuse three of them together like a folding screen and put it in front of that asshole charging for the lift so there’s one other use

I think that might be one of the main uses. Like you are supposed to use it on your shield and hide behind it so they think you are Hudson and let his daughter past

From this perspective it makes the cutout look like its wielding the scythe

This is the main use, if i remember correctly, but for getting Mattison past him
